Chapter 9: Love Is Blind
Serena couldn't help it. The man she loved was going to leave the country to comfort another girl for her loses. She couldn't take it anymore. She just wanted to scream out loud that it wasn't fair, but instead she showed one thing to Darien that she never wanted to show, weakness. He had seen her cry and now he was going to find out why unless she could cover up her silly school girl crush before he found out about it.
"Serena, please don't cry," Darien pleaded, wiping a few strays tears that fell down her face. As she felt his warm fingers touch the cool surface of her face, she began to cry harder. How could he do this to her? He was leaving! "What is it? Why are you crying?"
"Why are you running away from me?!" Serena blurted out. She wasn't taking it anymore. She was going to get to the bottom of this and right now! Now more *stalling*.
"I'm not running away from you," Darien replied, shaking his head. He was searching Serena's eyes, but through the tears and anger he could see nothing else.
"Yes you are! You're running away to France.....you can't stand to be near me so you're going to run off .....t-to another c-country," Serena cried, losing her composure. "A-and another g-girl!"
"Serena.....I," Darien stuttered, trying to find the right words. He then glanced around and realized people were staring at them. "Serena, maybe we should discuss this at my apartment."
Serena then glanced around and realized just how much of a public place they were in. She blushed and looked to the floor as Darien wiped away the last few tears that fell. Serena glanced up at him as he finished his simple gesture. Why was he so confusing? She couldn't read his eyes either or maybe she was afraid of what she might not see in them so she was choosing not to?
"Well, are we going to go?" Darien asked, smiling slightly at Serena as she blushed again. She was just so cute. He couldn't help it.
Serena nodded and that was all Darien needed. As they started walking Darien reached down and grabbed Serena's ice cold hand. He wrapped it in his warm one to the surprise of the blonde. Darien smiled once more as he saw Serena blush again out of the corner of his eye.
~~~~~~At The Apartment~~~~~~
Darien unlocked his door and held it open for Serena. The blonde walked in as Darien closed the door behind them. To Serena's surprise the place was huge. There was a spacious living room off of the kitchen which was the room she was standing. Outside of the living room was a well sized balcony over looking the city skyline. As Serena walked out into the living room to her right was a hallway that lead to the bathroom and Darien's bedroom. She could only guess the these because she couldn't really see in the room.
To Serena's dismay, there was lack of pictures on the walls. In the kitchen there was a lot of appliances on the counters and in the living there was a couch and a chair made of black leather. The carpet was a forest green color. The tile made of marble leading from the kitchen was a cream color swirled with obsidian. There was also a large stereo system in the living room surrounding the large screen TV. But, there was still the lack of pictures.
There were only two in the entire apartment. Both were on top of the TV. One was of Andrew and him making funny faces and the other was of everyone excluding him and her. Serena realized what was wrong with it. It didn't feel welcoming. Nothing like a home.....it was more of a place to sleep.
As Serena was doing this, Darien had took off his jacket and wandered out onto the balcony. When Serena finally broke out of her staring fit, she followed him out there.
Darien was leaning against the railing, his ebony hair blowing slightly in the cool breeze. His attention was directed toward the skyline and the fading sun. It was going to be dark soon and Serena and him still hadn't talked.
But, that would soon be remedied.
"Darien? Why *are* you running away?" Serena asked, leaning next to him.
"I'm not," Darien replied, simply. "I don't know what ever gave you that impression either. I have to go visit Misty. I've been promising her that I would."
"That's the thing Darien," Serena stated, turning to him as he turned to look at her. "You don't have to go! There are people that are here that love you and need you!"
"Are you one of them, Serena?" Darien asked, searching her crystal blue eyes for the answer.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Will Serena *finally* tell Darien the truth? Or can she slither her way out of another one? Stay tuned for Chapter 10: Confessions!! Ja mata ne, minna-san!!
